Ok I'm 16 & my sister is 12. Me and her are having a argument over this. She said that sharks eat dolphins and I said that they don't and if they even do which i doubt they do it's on accident not on purpose. So whos right me or my sister? (im not sure if this is a food related question or not and if its not than im sorry) thanks!

Sharks will eat them but it is rare. They typically look for smaller and easier prey. A dolphin is especially open to attack if it is injured, especially if it is bleeding. As a side note, Dolphin are one of the few animals in the sea that can fight back from a shark attack and there has even been a number of reports of one dolphin jumping into a fight between a shark and another dolphin to try and help out his friend.

Sharks will eat dolphins if they are injured and slow enough to catch, other than that a dolphin will kill a shark by ramming him in the gills with his nose. Sharks don't want to mess with a healthy dolphin, especially when there are other dolphins

I hate to step into the middle of a family argument, but I feel compelled to clear up the reputation of the lofty dolphin. There are few creatures in the sea which the dolphin will not beat, and sharks are not one of them. Dolphins are not just unbeaten by sharks, they are fearless before them. Of course, if a dolphin is wounded, it may not be able to fend off a shark. Otherwise, dolphin use their superior mobility, strong tail, and their great intelligence to defeat enemies.

sharks do not eat dolphins, unless the meat is already available. Dolphins swim in schools or groups and can take on a shark any day. A dolphin one-on-one with a shark, can kill it. They ram their nose into the gills of the shark at fast speeds and the shark will hemorrhage and die.

cause dolphins has resonance that can reach bout in ... km... far away they will know it before shark can reach them. crocodiles has 2, in water and in salt water... while shark only in salt water and in the ocean, crocodiles arent stay in the water too deep... they just near of the land... cause they cant that long like shark stay underwater... but yes shark can eat both, but the condition is little bit difficult for shark to reach them

Sharks eat dolphins. So do killer whales and humans.

Sharks do, in fact, eat dolphins.
They don't eat lawyers, however, out of professional courtesy.
